I am travelling to Osaka in Jan 2018 around the Australia day week.
Would appreciate some recommendations for any budget and clean hotels near Shinsaibashi area?

I used AirBNB in Osaka, worked really well… great availability and the prices were excellent.
I'd recommend Airbnb. Very cheap.
Have a look on Booking.com using the current active deal for a cash rebate.
Also check out Hostelworld if you don't mind spending time in a private room in a hostel. Cheap and normally managed very neatly.
Worth reading up on Wikitravel while you're at it.
I stayed at the Hotel Code, Shinsaibashi in June this year. 3 minute walk to the Dotonbori and it's right in the middle of all the action.
Clean, brand new. I'd suggest get a slightly bigger room than the base standard rooms (they are tiny). I paid $140 AUD per night which also included a breakfast (pastry and coffee)

Tripadvisor is great for this kind of research - you can search for a certain area and price range and sort by the highest rated - made up of many more reviews then you will find here
